Pam Tillis - CleopatraQueen of Denial lyrics

(pam tillis/bob dipiero/jan buckingham)

(track 7 - time 3:13)

Well I said he had a lot of potential

He was only misunderstood

You know he didn't really mean to treat me so bad

He wanted to be good

And I swore one day I would tame him

Even though he loved to run hog wild

Just call me cleopatra everybody'cause I'm the queen of denial

I knew he didn't have any money

Yeah that's why he couldn't buy me a ring

Oh and just because he bought himself a brand new pickup truck

Really didn't prove anything

And he never had to say he loved me

I could see it every time he smiled

Just call me cleopatra everybody'cause I'm the queen of denial

Oh queen of denialbuyin' all his alibis

Queen of denialfloatin' down a river of lies

Well I'm not gonna jump to conclusions

Or throw away this perfect romance

Even though I caught him dancin' last night

With a girl in a leopard skin pants

Yeahhe's probably stuck in traffic

And he'll be here in a litte while

Just call me cleopatra everybody'cause I'm the queen of denial

Oh queen of denialbuyin' all his alibis

Queen of denialjust floatin' down a river of lies
